Drop Hawley for good, loan a striker who can score goals.

Andy Carroll for a month to help with his fitness?

I thought as much Dave!

Wildly hoping some player was allowed to leave their current contract for nowt and fancied living on the Rivera for very little dollar!

Rich, I very much doubt we are in a position to purchase a player with a better pedigree than Stockley or Marquis..................

Another loan addition teeboo or something more permanent?

Theo Walcott?

I thought Cameron was terrible against Exeter, I haven't seen him much but I did against the Grecians.

We do need a big striker, similar build to Mozika?

Danny Stevens..??

I think we need another forward and hopefully one will be in place by the end of the week.

Despite a heartwarming and committed performance v. Morecombe why can we not score more goals?

Karl Hawley - good general play and movement, but no attempts on goal
Elliot Benyon - massive workrate, unlucky with a header (not his strong point), lacked composure from 10 yards in second half
Billy Bodin - the enigma, lots of potential but hardly any attempts on target

Others: Ashley Yeoman - arguably our most likely striker to score, where is he?
Jordan Chappell - early promise but goal drought since being played on the left, reluctant to use his left foot
Courtney Cameron - looked eager against Exeter, why not give him a chance if others cannot score

General play - given that most goals are scored with the feet, why do we persist in knocking high balls to or beyond the far post as our forwards do not seem to score with headers
- football highlights on tv show a good number of goals scored from playing to the near post, but why do we not target this difficult-to-defend area, especially when cutting-in from the flanks? (except v. Exeter, Benyon providing a tap-in for Hawley).

COYY - more composure in front of goal and more variety on balls into the box.
